I just tried to swap into a longer trip. The trip was longer, and covered the same days (actually more than) the trip I was trying to swap out of. Trip was much better for me. Denied, reserve grid. This CAN'T be allowed to continue. Period. Same as these atrocious pairings that have only gotten worse for the last year. I'm fine with a narrower scope/quick deal/extension, but there are a few issues that need to be fixed IMMEDIATELY. |

Yes, $450 sounds nice. Now in the real world, how you gonna vote on 6% plus no scheduling improvements???
Our pairings have gone to GARBAGE, and our pairings are our QOL. |

Let me guess…you’d “hold your nose and vote yes” again?
Exactly my point. |
Can we start with that 3% we got from the NEA and add a “0” to it for a starting point? 30% plus is needed

^^^^^^…..gets it. CK will write an email explaining how a 2% raise and Flica committee is a great deal during President Spongebrain $hitpants 8% inflation and this gullible group will vote it in 60/40 at least. Just hope there are bigger balls on the Spirit side of it all happens.

Did you call them? If the same days are covered and you call scheduling, they’ll approve it in about 5 seconds. Works every time for me.
We need better, and I hope we get it in our next contract. |

It’s insane that FLICA is even programmed that way to deny it to begin with—and more insane that it hasn’t been fixed after all this time—mind blown.
We need better, and I hope we get it in our next contract. until someone else snags the trip that could have been yours in the meantime. We need better trip trading ability. Period. |
I hope everyone gave some serious numbers to our contract extension survey.
